Beneath the footboard you can loosen one simple wing nut to adjust the depth of the footboard to customize the feel of the pedal.
You can adjust the cam pitch by simply loosen two allen screws. Just roll them forward or back to adjust the pitch of the pedal creating a customized punch to the pedal.
The beater can be pushed nearer or further from the head by a simple adjustment of the beater depth. The dual headed beater will help you pick your perfect sound for every beat.
At the spring assembly is where the power lies. In the red zone, you will find a roller bearing to push your pedal in to high gear. Also, you can adjust the distance from the beater to the head with a simple allen screw adjustment.
The new design of the reliable hoop clamp will make sure the pedal stays attached to your bass drum hoop.
Last but not least is the new Stick Caddy for those who always need something nearby when the show calls for it.
The double bass drum model (TMW-D) can be converted to a left handed model without too much of a problem featuring Taye Drums’ configuration friendly design.
MetalWorks pedals are available as either a single (TMW - $299, Retail) or a double pedal (TMW-D - $649, Retail).
